Features

Everything you need to stay on air

Every feature listed here genuinely exists in the program. We do not list things we have not built — and what we do not do is written honestly at the bottom of this page.

Core capability

Every sound card is its own stream

You open the program once and add as many channels as you like. Each channel uses its own audio source, its own server and its own codec and quality settings. They all run at the same time, independently of one another.

🎛

Channel pairs on pro cards

On 8- or 16-output cards every stereo pair (1-2, 3-4, 5-6…) is listed as a separate source.

🔌

Input and output devices

Microphone inputs, line inputs and system audio outputs (loopback) can all be used as a source.

📋

Channel duplication

Clone a configured channel with one click. All you change is the audio source.

Audio quality & codecs

Opus plus three flavours of AAC

Choose based on your bandwidth and your audience. Every channel's codec and bitrate is independent.

Ultra low latency

Opus

The most advanced open-source audio codec. Crystal-clear sound for speech and live streams. 6–510 kbps VBR.

Audio qualityExcellent
Bandwidth savingVery good
Best for: live speech, low-latency streams
Widest compatibility

AAC-LC

Standard AAC. The most natural, lively stereo sound for music streams. 64–320 kbps.

Audio qualityHigh
Bandwidth savingLow
Best for: fast connections, music-led output
Balanced

HE-AAC v1

High quality at low bitrates. Ideal for mobile listeners and constrained bandwidth. 32–96 kbps.

Audio qualityGood
Bandwidth savingGood
Best for: multi-channel hotel installations
Smallest footprint

HE-AAC v2

Stereo at very low bitrates thanks to Parametric Stereo. For weak connections. 16–64 kbps.

Audio qualityFair
Bandwidth savingExcellent
Best for: slow links, many channels

On both bars longer is better: the top one is audio quality, the bottom one is how little data it takes to get there.

You cannot pick an invalid combination The program never even lists quality values that the selected codec does not support, so building a configuration that cannot work is impossible.
📡
Four server protocols Icecast 2 (PUT), Icecast 2 (POST), Shoutcast v1 and Shoutcast v2 — all four selectable per channel.
Channel routing

Left, right, or both

You can split a single stereo card into two separate mono streams. Feed one piece of music to the left channel and another to the right, and you end up with two independent radio stations — effectively doubling your card count.

🔊LEFT
🔊RIGHT

Both channels are broadcast as they are. Classic stereo stream.

🔊

Level and gain

Pre-amp and 0.1x – 2.0x gain per channel. Balance a weak source right in the stream.

〰️

DC blocker and limiter

DC offset is removed from the audio chain and sudden level jumps are smoothed out.

📈

Live level meters

Separate dB readouts for left and right, plus a real-time waveform display.

🤫

Silence detection

If audio stops, the channel is flagged as silent. You define the threshold.

Security and background operation

Stealth monitoring & automatic device detection

The program is designed to stop unauthorised staff from tampering with the stream. Start the system, press 🔒 Hide, and it collapses into a 250×120 px monitoring window that sits quietly in the corner of the desktop.

🔐

15-right-click security lock

Reaching the settings requires 15 right-clicks on the window within 3 seconds. Nobody stops a stream by accident.

🔌

Instant sound card hot-plug

USB or Dante virtual cards are detected the moment they are plugged in or removed, without closing the program.

🚀

Auto-start with Windows

Even after a reboot the last session is restored and your channels return to air on their own.

⌨️

Keyboard shortcuts

Space (start/stop), Ctrl+S (global settings) and Delete keep you moving quickly.

If the server goes down, the stream does not

You can define a primary and a backup server for every channel. Try it with the button below.

Exponential retry

If the link drops, it retries after 5, 10, 15… seconds. When the server returns, the stream resumes on its own.

Real connection verification

The server's response is actually read. If the password is wrong it does not claim "connected" — it shows you the error.

📝

Event log

Every connect, drop and error is written to a log file with a timestamp. Old entries are cleaned up automatically.

What your listeners see

Every channel has its own name, description, genre and website. These details are sent to the server, and listeners see them in their radio app or web player.

  • 📻Station name and description
  • 🎵Genre (music, news, sport, mixed)
  • 🌐Website and broadcaster info
  • 👥Live listener count from the server

All settings are saved automatically; your channels are still there after a restart.

What we do — and what we do not

We spell out the technical limits so there are no surprises after you buy.

🎵
The main software is an encoder ElaDyne Broadcaster captures audio from sound cards and forwards it to your server. For automatic music fallback and Auto-DJ there is a companion product, ElaDyne Monitor.
No local stream recording There is no feature to archive your streams to disk as MP3/WAV. If you need recordings, do it on the server side.
🖥
We do not provide the streaming server You need your own Icecast or Shoutcast server. We are happy to advise on choosing a provider.
💻
Windows 10 & 11 only (64-bit) Built specifically for Windows to get low-latency sound card access via WASAPI. There is no macOS or Linux build.
